The India Meteorological Department (IMD) Mumbai centre issued an ‘orange’ alert for Maharashtra capital and neighbouring Thane and Raigad districts today, July 25, predicting severe to heavy rainfall in isolated spots.
As a result of the city’s persistent rainfall over the last 2-3 days, traffic bottlenecks, waterlogged roads, and delayed local trains have become common concerns for Mumbai residents. On July 22, the city saw its wettest day of the year, with record-breaking rainfall.
On the other hand, Mumbai University announced the results of the three-year BCom fifth semester exam on July 23. According to reports, 36,105 final year BCom students registered for the fifth semester repeat exam in April-May 2023, after failing the regular exam which was held in November-December last year.
Out of the total, only 16,782 of them passed all of the papers, for a success percentage of 51.36 per cent. Reports state that candidates performed considerably worse in the standard fifth-semester exam, with barely one-third, or 34.25 per cent of student passing.
